FCC Information• This device complies with Part 15 of theFCC Rules. Operation is subject to thefollowing two conditions: (1) This devicema y no t ca use har mful interference, a nd (2)this device must accept any interferencereceived, including interference that maycause undesired operation. • Important: Changes or modifications to thisunit not expressly approved by Uniden couldvoid your authority to operate this unit.Your radio is set up to trans mi t a regulatedsignal o n a n assigned freq ue ncy. It isagainst the law to alter the settings inside theradio to exceed those limitations. Anyadjustments to your radio must be made byqualified technicians. • To be safe and sure:o Never open your radio’s case o Never change or replace anything in yourradio except the batteries. • Your radio might cause TV or radiointerference even when it is operatingproperly. To determine whether your radiois causing the interference, turn it off. If theinterference goes away, your radio iscausing it. Try to eliminate the interferenceby moving your radio away from thereceiver. If you cannot eliminate theinterference, the FCC requires that you stopusing the radio. Safety Guidelines• Audio Accessories: Do not operate theradio with audio accessories at high volumelevels. Hearing experts advise againstcontinuous high volume operation. If youexperience a ringing in your ears, reduce thevolume level or discontinue use. Alwaysmake sure the radio is turned off beforeplugging audio accessories into theaccessory jack. • Hazardous Environments: Do not operatethe radio in hazardous environments.Explosion or fire may result. Do not operatethe radio near unshielded electrical blastingcaps. Under certain conditions, radios caninterfere with blasting operations and maycause an explosion. Turn your radio OFF toprevent accidental transmission w hen in ablasting area or in areas posted: “Turn offtwo-way radios.” Construction crews oftenuse remote control RF devices to set offexplosives. • Care and Safety: To clean the radio, use asoft cloth da mpe ned w ith w ater. Do not usecleaners or solvents because they can harmthe body of the unit and leak inside, causingpermanent damage. Use a dry, lint-freecloth to clean the battery contacts. Do notsubmerge the unit in water. If the unit getswet, turn it off and remove the batteriesimmediately. Dry the battery compartmentwith a soft cloth to mi ni mi ze pote ntial waterdamage. Leave the battery compartmentcover off overnight to ensure completedrying.

ENGINEERING STATEMENT For Type Certification of Trisquare Communications Model No: FRS420 FCC ID: O9GFRS440 I am an Electronics Engineer, a principal in the firm of Hyak Laboratories, Inc., Springfield, Virginia. My education and experience are a matter of record with the Federal Communications Commission. Hyak Laboratories, Inc. has been authorized by Trisquare Communications to make type certification measurements on the model FRS420 transceiver. These tests made by me or under my supervision in our Springfield laboratory. Test data and documentation required by the FCC for Type Certification are included in this report.

INTRODUCTION The following data are submitted in connection with this request for type certification of the model FRS420 transceiver in accordance with Part 2, Subpart J of the FCC Rules. The model FRS420 is a portable, battery operated, UHF, frequency modulated transceiver intended for 12.5 kHz channel family radio service applications in the 462.5625-467.7125 MHz band. It operates from a nominal 4.8 Vdc battery supply. MFR rated output power is 0.5 watts ERP(d) B. GENERAL INFORMATION REQUIRED FOR TYPE CERTIFICATION (Paragraph 2.983 of the Rules) 1. Name of applicant: Trisquare Communications 2. Identification of equipment: FCC ID: O9GFRS440 a. The equipment identification label is submitted as a separate exhibit. b. Photographs of the equipment are submitted as a separate exhibit. 3. Quantity production is planned. 4. Technical description: a. 11k0F3E emission b. Frequency range: 462.5625 - 467.7125 MHz. c. Operating power of transmitter is fixed at the factory at less than 0.5 W ERP(d) d. Maximum power permitted is 0.5 watts, and the model FRS420 fully complied with that power limitation. e. The dc voltage and dc currents at final amplifier: Collector voltage: 4.4 Vdc Collector current: 0.57 A f. Function of each active semiconductor device: See Semiconductors exhibit. g. Complete schematic diagram is submitted as a separate exhibit. h. A draft instruction manual is submitted as a separate exhibit. i. The transmitter tune-up procedure is submitted as a separate exhibit. 2 B. GENERAL INFORMATION (continued) j. A description of circuits for stabilizing frequency is included in Technical Description exhibit. k. A description of circuits and devices employed for suppression of spurious radiation and for limiting modulation is included in Technical Description exhibit. l. Not applicable. 5. Data for 2.985 through 2.997 follow this section. C. RF_Power_Output (Paragraph 2.985(a) of the Rules) The model FRS420 has a permanently attached built-in antenna without provisions for a coaxial connector. Therefore RF power was determined by substitution. TABLE 1 Operating Freq., MHz Power watts into a dipole antenna 462.5625 0.49 D. MODULATION CHARACTERISTICS 1. A curve showing frequency response of the transmitter is shown in Figure 1. Reference level was audio signal output from a Boonton 8220 modulation meter with one kHz deviation. Audio output was measured with an Audio Precision System One integrated test system. 2. Modulation limiting curves are shown in Figure 2, using a Boonton 8220 modulation meter. Signal level was established with a Audio Precision System One integrated test system. The curves show compliance with paragraphs 2.987(b). 3. Figure 3 is a graph of the post-limiter low pass filter which provides a roll-off of 60Logf/3 dB where f is audio frequency in kHz. Measurements were made following EIA RS-152B with an Audio Precision System One integrated test system on the Boonton 8220 modulation meter audio output. 3 4. Occupied_Bandwidth (Paragraphs 2.989(c) of the Rules) Figure 4 is a plot of the sideband envelope of the transmitter output taken with a Tektronix 494P spectrum analyzer. Modulation corresponded to conditions of 2.989(c)(1) and consisted of 2500 Hz tone at an input level 16 dB greater than that necessary to produce 50% modulation at 2469 Hz, the frequency of maximum response.

SPURIOUS EMISSIONS AT THE ANTENNA TERMINALS (Paragraph 2.991 of the Rules) The model FRS420 has a permanently attached antenna. There is no connector for an external antenna. Therefore, no antenna terminal conducted measurements were made. F. DESCRIPTION OF RADIATED SPURIOUS MEASUREMENT FACILITIES A description of the Hyak Laboratories’ radiation test facility is a matter of record with the FCC. The facility was accepted for radiation measurements from 25 to 1000 MHz on October 1, 1976 and is currently listed as an accepted site. G. MEASUREMENTS OF SPURIOUS RADIATION Spurious emissions from the model FRS420 were made by substitution with a Tektronix 494P spectrum analyzer using Singer DM-105 for the measurements to 1 GHz, and EMCO 31…
